Having recently moved to ps4 and with a lot of members recently joining NoDo, we could all do with getting to know each other a little better. I'll post 20 questions below exactly as the Get to know me in 20 games thread did, however the questions won't be all gaming related. You don't have to answer them all and it would be great if you could give a little detail as to why you have chosen your answer. So here it goes. 1) What is your favourite game of all time? 2) What is your favourite movie of all time? 3) Who is your favourite music artist and/or what genre of music to you enjoy the most? 4) What is the very first video game you remember playing and enjoying? 5) If you could only play one game for the rest of your life what would it be? 6) What is your favourite car? 7) What is your favourite meal? 8) If you could live anywhere in the world, where would you live? 9) What was your favourite subject at school? 10) What is your favourite TV show? 11) Do you support a sports team, if so who and why? 12) Most memorable holiday/vacation? 13) Spring, Summer, Autumn or Winter? 14) What sound do you love? 15) If you won the lottery, what is the first thing you would do? 16) What job did you want to have when you were older as a child? 17) What is the most embarrassing thing that's ever happened to you that you don't mind sharing? 18) Who is your hero/role model? 19) Ever had any nicknames? What are/were they and why? 20) What is your biggest life achievement to date? Might take you a while to answer all these so don't worry if you don't get through all of them. Feel free to add anything else in if you want to share.

So here are mine: 1) What is your favourite game of all time? I'd have to go with Minecraft for this, good memories.2) What is your favourite movie of all time? Back to the Future - I know I cheated but it's a hard question 3) Who is your favourite music artist and/or what genre of music to you enjoy the most? I like so many different genres of music and listen to whatever suits my mood. Nothing beats 80s music though.4) What is the very first video game you remember playing and enjoying? Muppets Race Mania - Kind of a Mario Kart rip off but I really enjoyed it.5) If you could only play one game for the rest of your life what would it be? Again Minecraft. With so many things to do it can be played for weeks in a row.6) What is your favourite car? Nissan GTR - Sexy.7) What is your favourite meal? Can't beat a bit of fried chicken with chips.8) If you could live anywhere in the world, where would you live? New York City - Just love it.9) What was your favourite subject at school? Probably Physics, although I have gone on to do history at uni as it is also a good subject. So was P.E., we played football all the time.10) What is your favourite TV show? Sherlock/ Life on Mars11) Do you support a sports team, if so who and why? Wolverhampton Wanderers, a football team in the second division of English football. I was born in Wolverhampton and so was my dad and he is a Wolves fan too. There is a picture of me as a baby in a Wolves shirt. Big club with a big history.12) Most memorable holiday/vacation? Disney World - Florida. Went on holiday to America for a month when I was 7. Had a great time, really did feel magical at that age.13) Spring, Summer, Autumn or Winter? Spring for the change after a long winter, summer for the parties, autumn for the leaves winter for the snow and Christmas. A cheaty answer but each season has its pros and cons and I can't choose between them.14) What sound do you love? A coin in water and leaves being blown by the wind.15) If you won the lottery, what is the first thing you would do? Buy a mansion.16) What job did you want to have when you were older as a child? An airline pilot, weird as it sounds. I just liked the idea of travelling around the world and I heard the pay was good too. I'd still like to have that job now.17) What is the most embarrassing thing that's ever happened to you that you don't mind sharing? Eugghh so many to choose from. I guess I'll go for the time I was on a walk with my family and family friends, we had walked up to the top of a large hill through the woods. On the way back down we came to a really steep slope. As I ran down it my trousers fell down round my ankles and I tripped up in the muddy ground -.-18) Who is your hero/role model? Never really thought about it much but I'd say my dad. He didn't exactly come from a family of wealth and as worked his way up the ladder all his life to get to the job he's in now which is well payed. Really funny and nice person.19) Ever had any nicknames? What are/were they and why? I had a few before, none that really stuck or that I can remember. I guess D.Ward was the one I got called by a few people. Danny Ward is my name and for some reason they thought D.Ward sounded cool 20) What is your biggest life achievement to date? Getting into Uni I guess. Not exactly had many great achievements.

There's enough content in there to keep me going. If Journey was longer, then that. 6) What is your favourite car?My old Peugeot 306. It might not be as fast, sexy or as desirable as a Ferrari or some other cars which will no doubt be answered for in other people's posts, but it's the car I wish I (still) had over any other right now. It meant a lot to me. 7) What is your favourite meal?Any home-cooked Chinese meal with my family. 8) If you could live anywhere in the world, where would you live?Australia, or South Africa without the crime 9) What was your favourite subject at school?Art 10) What is your favourite TV show?The Simpsons seasons 1-10 11) Do you support a sports team, if so who and why?McLaren, Williams, Caterham - I dunno why. Just like 'em. 12) Most memorable holiday/vacation?Prague with my (now ex) girlfriend, South Africa with my (now ex and same) girlfriend. 13) Spring, Summer, Autumn or Winter?Summer. Give me heat, sunshine, long days and active times. 14) What sound do you love?Industrial grinding.

Would still love to be one. 17) What is the most embarrassing thing that's ever happened to you that you don't mind sharing?At the school May ball, ages 17 and 18, the school was allowed to serve each pupil 3 beers and they'd write down each person's number when they served them. Some people didn't want any so I took them. I ended up drinking about 14 pints or something ridiculous, got black out drunk, locked myself in the girl's toilets, kicked over the instruments that the live band set up, puked on the headmaster and several teachers who were trying to hold me down, told my parents to fuck off. It was all a complete blur and I woke up in an emergency room after having my stomach pumped. I was suspended for a few days, banned from all extra-curricular activities, and the school changed their policies quickly afterwards. 18) Who is your hero/role model?Christopher Hitchens, Peter Christopherson, David Attenborough, Bertrand Russell. 19) Ever had any nicknames? What are/were they and why?Real name: Robert Most common nicknames: Rob, Robbie - obvious reasons. Others: drift, driftin, drifty - my online alias. RB, Arby - initials 20) What is your biggest life achievement to date? What a depressing question. I don't have many big achievements, just lots of little ones that have all added up to my experiences. I guess winning some local awards for a few short films I made about 6 years ago.

NHLPA93 for the Mega Drive (or Genesis, to our American friends)

Can't say I've ever had any really amazing holidays.

My Dad.

Good too see The Simpsons getting a couple of mentions. Must have watched all the old episodes hundreds of times each, never gets old. Some really funny adult humor as well which makes it even more funnier when re-watching them as I didn't get the joke as a kid.

Hey Driftin, looking at your list of heroes, atheist/skeptic much? All great men, and I love the shout out for Autechre. Great band. Atheist? Yeah I guess. Skeptic? Again, probably. I try my best to approach everything logically. I adore Autechre. Good to see Boards of Canada on your post, another one of my very favourites. I have no idea how many times I've listened to their first two albums. They mean a lot to me
